On Sunday, veteran all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja offered words of encouragement to debutant Saransh Jain, urging him to approach his first match for India without pressure. Jadeja advised the 33-year-old spin bowler to treat his debut against Sri Lanka in the second Test of their two-match series as just another First-Class game. Saransh Jain became the 320th player to represent India in Test cricket. In a video shared by the BCCI, Jadeja was seen congratulating Jain, stating, “Test cap No. 320, Saransh, well done.”
You have all the other 14 players with you to support you. Because of him, and I will continue to play for him,” Saransh said, i started playing cricket.
Madhya Pradesh’s Saransh, who replaced Kuldeep Yadav in the playing eleven, said getting the cap from the veteran all-rounder was apt since he too was an all-rounder. “As a cricketer, everyone has a dream to represent India and become a Test player. You should enjoy this moment. Don’t take pressure at all. Jadeja added, “Just like you have performed in so many domestic matches, play like you are playing another Firs-Class match. Enjoy this moment instead of taking pressure. “First of all, I would like to thank God and after that my family. My father is the closest person to me, so I would tell him first (about making Test debut).
